If Only My Words I Could Take Back
The words passed through my lips,
Before my head had time to think.
The inflicted pain was not the intent;
If only my words I could take back.
Before my head had time to think
My emotions got the better of me.
If only my words I could take back;
Suffering in silence I would prefer.
My emotions got the better of me;
As sometimes they’re apt to do.
Suffering in silence I would prefer;
My immaturity shone through.
As sometimes they’re apt to do,
Words were spoken with a bitter sting.
My immaturity shone through;
It was with thoughtless ignorance.
Words were spoken with a bitter sting;
The inflicted pain was not the intent.
It was with thoughtless ignorance
The words passed through my lips.
